Do you think is possible to fall in love for someone trough Internet?

Question

What´s the difference in meeting someone trough the Internet and at live?

Answer 1

Of course it is possible! One does not choose the time, place or the way it happens. The difference in meeting someone "live" or on-line is only in the possibility that they may fool you quite easy without a personal contact. But than again, it can happen in real as well. So, all you have to do, is to be very careful in both cases!

Answer 2

I have seen it happen....more than once. Maybe it's love, or maybe it's lust?
The differences are very obvious between a live encounter and one over the internet. I prefer to meet in person, then I can gauge honesty and intentions through body language, words, and personality. The internet affords some people too much room to deceive, or embellish certain details. How can a person derive emotional content from a screen full of font?
Love is a state of mind which begins when a person is alone and thinking about someone they like. The more they think about being with them, or doing things with them, and start thinking about the next time they will see/talk to them online/in-real-life, the more anticipation they build for the next meeting. Of course, the person would have to be intriguing, exciting, or interesting in some way, even attractive for the right amount of anticipation and excitement to be present in the mind of the person being seduced. Have you ever fallen in love with someone?
You think about them when you're not with them, you imagine the next time you'll see them, and you feel a certain energy in your body when they are around. So, yeah, I think it is possible to fall in love with someone through the internet because love and feeling a connection with someone are states of mind, which we really do to ourselves when we find someone who allows us to feel safe, feel connected, and be who we are.

Answer 3

I am engaged to my future husband thanks to the internet and the yahoo member directory. Turned out we were from the same area. So yes, it's possible.

Similar risks are involved in meeting people over the net as it is live (or on a blind date), but when you're set up on a blind date, it's through someone that knows you and they know this other person at least enough to think you might enjoy a date with them.

Talking to people across the 'net, you don't know if you're actually talking to a man, woman, or your uncle and extra precautions should be taken in making that decision to meet.

Answer 4

I think it's possible for us to fall in love with the idea of what we think the person is. The difference is that we can be anyone we want on the computer. It's two dimensional, so you don't get the full picture of the person all at once. It can be very misleading. Of course, the same can happen when you meet in real life.

Answer 5

Doubtful, some personal interaction is needed; then maybe things could take off; internet can develop the interest only; altho I guess some people "fall in love" easier than others - internet is just a playground and it's fun

Answer 6

I think that on the net you're able to get an idealized picture of the person - what they want you to see. You can become infatuated but the test of true love is if, with the good and bad, they're still in your heart every moment of the day - you need the bad for that so I'd say no.

Answer 7

The main difference is that in person, you can see if they are who and what they say they are.

On the internet, you really do not know who is doing the typing. There is no way to see them or to see what they may be hiding (like men who say they are women, or people who weigh 400lbs who say they weigh 125lbs, or people who say they are 22 years old when they are really 55 years old...)

It is dangerous to trust too much, sight unseen, and please protect yourself from anyone who says they are falling in love with you. Be very careful. There are predators out there who are out to meet nice people and then take advantage of them.

Answer 8

You get the best side of the person. This might create illusion of the person.Although connectivity is fast, yet there are pitfalls. There are however examples where the two fell in love and got married later on.

Answer 9

I advice you not to engage in such thing.
ask me, I fall in that experience before. but seeing or talking via internet can't be a robust relationship. and trying to build a relationship with someone on the other part on the world sometimes is not possible.

Answer 10

Yes it works! =)

But not always. It's like if you met someone in class or at the gym. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It just depends on a lot of factors. Timing, is it true love, willingness to be together, etc.
